MOT photography, Bend OR

Tom is hands down the best family photographer I've seen or worked with - and his work only gets better and better each year. Most recently, I did an outdoor shoot with my daughter and the photos from that session are truly breathtaking.
And while his skill and dedication to the technical aspects of top-tier photography are incredible, what truly sets Tom apart is his personality and spirit -
Tom has a unique ability to see people's light and beauty, to connect with each person (and animal) that he works with, and to capture the best parts of them in a way that feels authentic, personal, intimate, and incredibly lovely.
I can't say enough - Book Tom.

My fiancé and I had the most amazing adventure with Tom during our engagement photo shoot, and again during our wedding! All of the photos were absolutely stunning - worth every penny and more! He truly knows how to capture the beauty of a place, along with the emotion of the moment, all while having fun and making it easy. His passion for photography and for his clients shows through in all of his work. We love you, Tom!

We had an idea for an adventure photo shoot and contacted Tom all the way from Michigan and he immediately had amazing ideas and surpassed our expectations. After our photoshoot, we were blown away that we not only have the amazing pictures, but we also experienced a once in a lifetime adventure with someone who is so passionate about photography and also the Pacific Northwest. I’m thankful we found him on a random Google search and can’t wait for him to work his magic capturing our wedding day!

Edited to add:

Tom did such a incredible job capturing our wedding day! He helped us plan a wildly fun adventure wedding through the Columbia River Gorge and totally embraced and ran with the vibe we were going for. He went above and beyond scoping out places for wedding shots to help make our photos unforgettable - to this day we are still in awe at his artistry! Book Tom if you really want timeless photos that will stand out! He also is just an amazing human worth getting to know! Thanks a million, Tom!:)

Hi Tom! I’m literally speechless with how incredible every picture you took of Kayla turned out. You did such an amazing job, you’re extremely talented and made the whole experience enjoyable. Hopefully you will still make special trips to the Gorge for photo shoots, I would love to have you do family photos in the near future. Thank you again for exceeding our expectations!

We love Tom. He is just the best photographer we have ever worked with. I love when he comes to Park City to take our photos. He knows how to capture the best shots!

Tom couldn’t have been more enjoyable to work with. Prompt, professional, but also extremely personable. He offered guidance with kindness and humor, which put our large group at ease. Although Tom never made us feel rushed, he was efficient and captured phenomenal photos of our multi-generation family with ease. His turnaround time was lightning fast, and he didn’t fail to deliver the beautiful photos we were hoping for. I highly recommend Tom and would gladly work with him again.

I've had a lot of photo shoots over the years, but Tom was above and beyond the previous photographers I've worked with. He not only is a talented photographer, but brought a lot of fun and joy to our family's photo-shoot. We all LOVED how he captured the moment and appreciated all the tips and suggestions in creating the perfect family portrait. He was great with the kids and even invited them to learn about photography. If I could give more stars, I would!

My fiancé and I had an amazing experience and received amazing engagement photos from Tom!
He has an awesome, fun, enthusiastic energy and passion for his job. He is a hard worker and cares about the satisfaction of his customers, treating them like friends/family!
5 stars hands down.

Mot. Mot. Mot. TOM! Hands down, thee best photography on the face of this PLANET! Yes, I said it and I stand by it! I'm sure there are many amazing photographers out there but I have no desire to find another one after meeting and working with Tom. He is so friendly, down to earth, professional, and talented! He made my husband and I feel so confident and happy. He treated all of my friends/family/guests so well, he just makes you want to be his friend for life, honestly.
The quality and creativity of his shots are sublime, PERIODT.
If other reviews haven't convinced you to book with him, then let this be the review. THE INVESTMENT IS WORTH IT!

We love you Tom! My husband and I, our friends/family, are all MOT GROUPIES hahahaha

We LOVED our experience with MOT Photography! He made us feel so comfortable during our photography session and he was truly a blast to hang out with. The photos are AMAZING and we'll cherish them for a lifetime.

Love the photos! We really enjoyed our session with Tom. Both my older sister and I have done previous sessions with other photographers and we both agreed Tom is our favorite as he made it so relaxing and enjoyable! Just so natural and easy going. You will love his work and he knows how to make everything seem natural while truly capturing what you want!

Tom photographed my sisters wedding and was so much fun to have around on her big day. He put everyone at ease with his humor and enthusiasm. I’m thankful for his involvement, as the photos are absolutely incredible. He has an eye for creative shots that set his photos apart from the rest. If you want beautiful photos with a down to earth photographer- Tom is your guy!

Tom, Absolutely wonderful! Beautiful, clear, quality photos. Images that catch the unique personalities in our family. Many special memories we will treasure always. Love them! Thank you so much!

Tom did SUCH an incredible job photographing our wedding rehearsal and our wedding day in August 2022 at Mt. View Orchards. We wanted someone who could capture the landscape as much as the people, and Tom exceeded our expectations. He wasn't someone who just showed up the day of our wedding. He was with us through the entire process; checking in to see how we were feeling, setting meetings as the big day got closer, and truly caring about our happiness with his work. He's as personable and he is talented and we got so many compliments from our friends and family about his energy and his work. Choosing a photographer to capture the most memorable day of your life is a really hard decision but we are so happy we chose to work with Tom! We hope to work with him again in the future.
